You have been such a faithful follower of my blog for YEARS that you might die of shock (1) to see me here today, (2) to know that I JUST followed your blog, and (3) to know that I just ordered “The Persecution of . . .” for my Kindle. Congratulations on the success of your books, and thank you for helping to rescue all those dogs! Yours is a wonderful mission of mercy. –John

Hello John! It’s so great to see you stop by and thank you so much for letting me know you purchased my book. I certainly hope you enjoy the read. And thank you for the contribution that will go to help get dogs out of kill shelters. To date this year we’ve exceeded last year (148) and are currently at 157 dogs freed. I’m truly grateful for your energy in this endeavor. Again thank you so much. ❤

Hi there! What a treat to have you stop by, especially since the photo of you two started my day with a smile. The Persecution of Mildred Dunlap is my first novel. I’ve since then written three more that have all done fairly well. The extra special good news is that all my profits go to help get dogs out of kill shelters. To date this year we’ve helped free 181 dogs. Last year the total was 148. Give Sam a big hug from this dog loving friend. ❤

Just a short note of Hello and Thank You for comments, blog postings, or recommendations/links to other pages.
For me, the whole process of writing and postings is painstaking, yet rewarding. Writing is never easy, even for this old retired English teacher, believe me.
So please continue to “Write On!” –and continue to look at one of my stories occasionally.
Warm regards,

Jim O’Neil

Hello Marylou, The beautiful wishes you bestowed upon us are wished right back to you and your family. Your support through the years, your beautiful nature posts and photography have been so uplifting and I look forward to more with you in 2018. Happy New Year! ❤

Hello my friend! I have been thinking of you and praying for you and everyone who lives in California! I hope that you are okay and that you did not lose any property. We sit from afar and watch the news on television or the internet and it just seems so devastating and sad.
Please know that I send good energy for healing from this trauma and a giant hug 💜💜

Thank you so much, Lorrie. This means so much to me and your kind-hearted energy will ripple along with with the bundles of love being sent to those in dire need. We evacuated for 5 days in the beginning of December then returned to be homebound with HEPA filters running 24/hours a day. Finally, close to 5 weeks later the air began to clear. And then the rain and our neighboring city, Montecito, was hit with devastation. The communities involved and impacted by the fire are gathering together and helping those in most need. Our motto: love spread faster than fire. Out of the ashes will come a lot of people bonded in acts of kindness and compassion. You have joined the circle and I can thank you enough. ❤

I’m so happy to hear from you and that you are ok!! It is so hard to understand that kind of devastation…and the only good thing about it is the way people come together…and forget about their ego-centric concerns- to look out for their neighbors…to pull together to help those in need. I’m so happy to hear that that is exactly what is happening. It shows beauty in an otherwise ugly situation.
Sending love and healing 💜
